...and other things you didn't know about me are buried in a Meet the Bloggers interview I did with Jeff H. and company. Check it out.

The fishing report: Me: 0. Zip. Nada. My five-year-old daughter: 10 bluegill and crappie. No keepers. Me: A very unlucky Texas rig (lizards and pumpkin plastic worms).

A lot of readers want to know how my Christmas present --the Roomba 4100 Red--is working. So far, so good!

Like an increasing number of gift-givers, we've been doing most of our Christmas shopping on Amazon.com. As in past years, there's an option before you place your order to purchase gift-wrapping for $4.99. Today, this gift for my daughter arrived in its "gift wrap"--a blue burlap sack with a cheap, day-glo green, wrinkled ribbon. Uh-uh-uh-gly!... Read More

I'm offering signed books for sale here, and am now set up to accept credit card payments. Orders received by Wednesday December 15th will be delivered before Christmas Day.

We bought our first real Christmas tree this year--a six-foot, North Carolina Frasier fir. My four-year-old daughter, a.k.a. Keeper of the Care Bears, claimed the honor of hanging the first decoration: Cheer Bear can stay, but I'm drawing the line at Bratz doll ornaments.

I am in need of a general contractor to do some work on a basement wall in my home in Montgomery County, Maryland. Any recommendations would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Reader Michael S. Sanders asks if he is "the only one who cannot download any of your graphics on your site." No, Michael, you are not the only one. It's a pretty common problem, unfortunately. Is there anyone out there who can help? If so, my e-mail address is [email protected]

Tim Layden's inspired choice gets my vote.

My Thanksgiving column is here. Hope you all have a wonderful holiday tomorrow. At the risk of offending the p.c. police, God be with you!

One of the special treats of the NR cruise was an advance screening of I Am David, a family-friendly movie that chronicles a 12-year-old boy's escape from a Bulgarian labor camp. It's scheduled for limited release in theaters on December 3. Check it out.

I am scheduled to be on Fox at 4:20am -- yes, 4:20am -- to discuss the latest goings-on.

Thanks to everyone who sent along birthday wishes and pumpkin pie recipes last week! We tried one with fresh pumpkin--using 1 medium sugar pumpkin--and another with canned pumpkin: I preferred the taste of the canned pumpkin pie, but you can't get into the spirit of the season without going through the ritual of scraping out...
